• post wedding dinner

  Perfect for a celebration! We have loved coming here for delicious food, attentive staff & relaxed peaceful “seaside in Puglia” vibe. Decided to have a post wedding dinner here and was so easy- catering team very communicative, menu options features their highlights and so easy to add on personalizations (decorations, menu, drinks) treated the entire evening like VIP - a great experience

• birthday dinner, party of 8

  Very nice Italian place with excellent staff. They were very helpful in accommodating us (party of 8!) in very short notice. The food was really high quality, both the ingredients and the presentation. The decor and atmosphere of the restaurant is also very lovely, classy and warm. Great place for a date or a get together of any kind. Thank you very much. very much.

• holiday party, party of 10

  We came for a Holiday party and the place was so beautifully decorated. We did the pre fixe menu since we had a party of 10. Possibly because of the holiday season, the service was extremely poor, hence the low rating, but the food was really spectacular. The appetizers were delicious, from the cheese and meat board to the beans. The fish and chicken dishes got rave reviews from our whole party. I got the steak which was tender and well seasoned. The Brussels' Sprouts were incredible with a perfect char and the fingerling potatoes were crisp on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Unfortunately, the food did not make up for the mishaps of the night. The waiter accidentally spilled a drink on someone in my party. We ordered a bottle of wine split between 6 people. The waiter poured so unevenly that he actually ran out before he got to my glass entirely. We ordered a red wine which was very cold even though red wine is usually served at room temp. The replacement drink (the one that was spilled and the new bottle that we ordered so I could actually get some wine) was very slow to come. And they actually initially gave our sides to the wrong table so we did not receive them until we had almost finished our mains by which point, we were pretty much full. The manager was kind enough to take the sides off of the bill and gave us a round of Limoncello as well at the end of our meal, but overall, I don't think I would come back.

• birthday dinner, party of 10

  I was able to secure a reservation for around 10 people in February just a few hours before dinner, which was surprising because the place was bustling! We were celebrating a friend's birthday, so we ordered a lot of dishes to share family-style. Everything was delicious, but I particularly loved the steak—it was tender and perfectly seasoned. I didn't get a chance to take a photo, but trust me, it was amazing. I also recommend the espresso martinis!

• group dinner, party of 7

  I had a reservation for 7people at 7:45pm on a Saturday night. We were running a bit late due to traffic (I tried to call the restaurant to give them a heads up but they don’t have anyone answering their phones on a saturday night.) Five of the seven of us arrive by 8pm, we’re told we can’t be seated until our full party is there - fine, we wait it out at the (very crowded) bar. 10 mins later our whole party is present and they said they cannot seat us, the people sitting at our table haven’t left yet and are delaying our seating. Literally not a single worker at the restaurant showed us any graciousness or apologized once - they just said “our manager is aware and we’ll grab you when the table is ready”. Finally at 8:30pm (45 mins after my reservation time) we finally sat. The food was good and came out timely but service is everything these days and Rosemarys severely dropped the ball here - didn’t offer up anything you’d expect to smooth it over - no comped round of drinks, even a simple “we are so sorry” would have smoothed it over at least a bit. They simply did not GAF and it was poor management of seating and reservation flow on a busy Saturday night. I know on OpenTable the restaurant says bigger parties have a time limit for seating time - why didn’t they enforce that? They also never told us when the previous table sat. Bad experience :(
